Had a great few days at the Arts Hotel with some friends. The room was ok, not fabulous as I expected it to be at the price. We had booked the club level room, and that was our best decision, if you can afford it then go for it. The champagne was flowing, and the food services were small but... more

Stayed here in August, on holiday in a standard deluxe room. Paid €345 for room and breakfast. This is a pretty nice hotel, as I guess you'd expect. The lobby is on the first floor, which is a good safety measure, I think. Décor is kind of neutral and expensive-looking - lots of beige, grey, cream etc. Some parts of... more

I stayed here for 2 nights in June, 2008 and we loved our room - we booked a standard room, but we had views of both the water and the city. The bathroom was large and the room had all the comforts that a Ritz should (large comfortable King bed, large marble bathroom with bath and shower, huge closets with... more

This is a beautiful hotel in a location we liked a lot - some complain that it is a bit removed from the center of things, but for us this was a positive, and cabs are easy and relatively inexpensive since most everything in Barcelona is quite close. The rooms were very large with great views of the city and... more

We stayed here for 2 nights waiting for our cruise ship embarkation. The lobby is pretty and the room (deluxe double) had a nice view of the beach, was very high tech with automatic blinds, music throughout the room and a beautiful modern bathroom. Decor was neutral, and attractive. We arrived from the airport at 10 in the morning and... more

Beautiful room with extra feather pillows as I had asked for. Incredibly attentive staff we found at all times, especially Katie who looked after our every need at the pool and Ross who... more

My wife and I stayed at the Arts for vacation. The room was very nice and very clean. 5 star room by US standards. The food at the restaurants was very good, but not excellent, and very expensive. The wine selection is very large. The staff at the restaurants however, were superb. The hotel staff on the other hand missed... more

This is an absolutely stunning hotel, great architecture and decor. The welcome is very friendly and polite, makes you feel like a valued guest. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, had a stunning view towards sea and city (12th floor). The bathrooms are like mini-spas. The linen is really nice quality and the cleaning is up to the standard.... more

Yes it is expensive and yes the lifts are slow, but do not let this distract you from staying at the best hotel in Barcelona. A few points to know:- Position The hotel is about by the Olympic Port about a 25 minute walk from The Ramblas. Some people have complained on this site saying it is out of the... more
